The distance from the small hill where the guests settled down to the manor was not very far. After only five minutes, the two of Ryan and the others walked across the large grassland to Greengrass Manor.

The first thing that caught their eyes was a bronze and gilt gate decorated with a large number of exquisite reliefs. When the two of Ryan and the others approached the gate, a man who looked like a powerful wizard on the relief turned his head to look at the two of Ryan and the others.

"Visitors, tell me your names and the purpose of coming here." A middle-aged man's voice with a bit of magnetism emerged from the relief's mouth, although the voice did not have many ups and downs, just like those common artificial voices. General intelligence. But the voice chosen by the owner of the room can still make people feel good.

"Just showed our friendliness, now it's time to show our strength." Ryan smiled at Hermione, and then pressed the door with his right hand emitting pink light. Just a few seconds later, the embossed face Then he showed a smile. "Ah, distinguished guests who have come from afar, please come in quickly. I have notified the master, and he will welcome you in the living room."

"Don't look at me, we didn't come to make a surprise attack, so naturally we have to notify the master to greet him." Ryan explained in a low voice to Hermione who suddenly turned his head and looked at him, "Besides, Sky City is now at the highest level. In the state of alert, you can jump through space at any time. Even if there is a mysterious person hiding in Greengrass' house, we don't need to worry about it."

As soon as Ryan finished explaining, the door opened inward with a creak. Behind the door is a French-style garden, densely covered with shrubs pruned into various geometric shapes and animal shapes.

In the middle of the garden is a fountain with a sculpture of a girl holding a water bottle. A stream of clear spring spurted upwards from the mouth of the water bottle in the girl's hand, forming the image of flowers in the sky, and finally fell into the pool, making a sound like music.

At the back of the garden, a three-story beige building with a small area stands there. The bronze roof has turned turquoise due to long-term oxidation, but it looks very harmonious with the beige building. After getting closer, Ryan and the others discovered that there were intricate and exquisite gold-plated sculptures on top of each pillar, which decorated the entire building magnificently.

"I feel that this place is much better than Malfoy's manor." As a wizard, Hermione would not judge a building purely on the surface. However, after entering the manor, Hermione, who was in a state of preparation for battle, could feel that there were a large number of exquisitely designed magic organs protecting it. If compared with Malfoy's manor, in general, Malfoy's manor has more defensive systems. It's good, but the quality is still a bit poor.

"It's normal." Ryan explained in a low voice. "Don't forget that the Greengrass family is one of the 28 oldest pure-blood families in the British magic world, and the Malfoy family is just an upstart from France. So many times even the Malfoy family is one of the best in the British magic world. money, but some things are still unobtainable.”

Stepping on the hard and smooth black marble steps, Ryan and the others came to a brown-red door. Before there was a knock, though, the heavy door swung open, and a house-elf who looked only a little more mature than Dobby appeared inside.

"Welcome, welcome two noble guests to Greengrass Manor." After the door was completely opened, the house elf bowed deeply, his nose seemed to touch the floor.

After that, she raised her hand and made a gesture of invitation, signaling Ryan and the others to follow her, and at the same time said in a sharp but not loud voice.

"Mr. William is waiting for you in the reception room. The ladies and ladies are already asleep, so please be quiet."

After speaking, the house elf led Ryan and the others to the side and walked into a corridor that seemed to be seldom used at ordinary times. Like the Malfoy manor, this place was also covered with gorgeous carpets on the stone floor. But unlike the silver-green decoration style of Sirius or the Malfoy family, the colors here are mainly blue, white and yellow, without that gloomy feeling.

It may be for safety reasons, so Mr. William, the owner of Greengrass, opened a room that is rarely used. So along the way, Ryan even found that there was not a single portrait of the kind that pure-blood wizard families often have.

"Sir, I have brought the guests." Walking to the end of the corridor, the house elf of the Greengrass family said to a brown door, and soon a tired voice came from inside. The voice of a middle-aged man. "Well, Carrie, you go about your business. Don't come here until I call you."

"Yes, sir." Carrie bowed and disappeared into thin air with a snap. At the same time, the door at the end of the corridor opened silently.

Ryan led Hermione into this reception room, which was a small room with exquisite interior decoration although it was small in size. A fair-haired middle-aged man is now sitting in a red velvet high-backed chair by the fireplace. After seeing Ryan and the others walk in, he stretched out his finger and made a gesture of invitation, pointing to the couch opposite the coffee table in front of him, signaling him and Hermione to sit down.

After the two sat down without saying a word, they watched William Greengrass make three cups of black tea, then handed them two cups, and took one cup into his hand.

For the next several minutes, the whole house fell into an eerie silence. Only the occasional sound of drinking tea and the light clinking of cups and saucers kept the room from being completely silent.

Finally, as the owner of Greengrass, William Greengrass couldn't hold on anymore. He put down the teacup in his hand and broke the silence in the room. "I really didn't expect that you would find me in such a short period of time."

"It's not a big deal." Ryan also put down his teacup and said, although at first he won a game by taking advantage of the opponent's eagerness. But facing the Patriarch of such a pure-blooded family, Ryan dared not slack off in the slightest. "Don't forget, I can fight that person head-on. The traces you left are enough for me."

"—you're right," William nodded after a brief silence. "That's why I chose to disclose this news to you, because only you and Dumbledore can stop the Dark Lord's next move, but compared with Dumbledore, I am more willing to deal with you."

"Is it because I'm younger and easier to deceive?" Ryan said with a haughty expression, but unexpectedly, the owner of the Greenglass family opposite him did not show anger or embarrassment, but Stated in a very flat tone.

"No, I won't lie to you." William shook his head. "For a wizard, power is everything. To deceive a wizard of your level is equivalent to bringing endless disasters to me and my family, so I will not do it."

William Greengrass knew that he had to give Ryan an explanation today, otherwise Ryan would never believe what he said next. So he explained after showing that he was definitely not cheating: "You are completely different from Dumbledore. Mr. Principal will not hesitate to sacrifice anyone, even himself, in order to achieve the goal of justice. There are many stories about the last war in my family." The data all show that."

"But you are different. You are willing to protect those who take refuge in you. For example, the Malfoy family. No matter how much the Dark Lord wants to kill them, they still have nothing to do."

"On the other hand," Mr. Greengrass said, pausing for a few seconds, and then said very frankly: "I was terrified by your previous attack on those who participated in the killing of Muggles. I tipped you that there is a The very important purpose is to keep my family and my family."
